About this map

Choteau serves as the focal point for this 1980s landscape, where the Teton River and its accompanying irrigation infrastructure define the local geography. The map documents a town layout featuring a Trailer Park, a local Airport with a Beacon, and a Golf Course, illustrating the community's mid-century expansion. North of the town center, Choteau Junction marks a key intersection near Truchot Hill, while the expansive Burton Bench plateau dominates the northern horizon.

Conservation and water management are prominent throughout the territory, evidenced by the Teton-Spring Creek Bird Reserve and the Freezout Lake Game Management Area to the south. Notable geological landmarks like Rattlesnake Butte and Priest Butte rise above the network of waterways including Deep Creek, Dog Creek, and various Ditch and Canal systems that support the surrounding agricultural tracts.
